A Chinese artist has staged a spectacular display combining fireworks, live music, and tango dancing in Argentine's capital Buenos Aires.
More than 43-thousand fireworks were launched from a floating platform behind the dancers during Cai Guo-Qiang's 80-minute display on Saturday night.
A tango orchestra and a group of professional tango dancers took part in the performance along the boardwalk next to the Riachuelo river.
An estimated 200,000 Argentines turned out for the show, according to the Argentine newspaper, La Nacion.
Joaquin Yamarino was one of the spectators.
"It was awesome.We've travelled to see this and we are really satisfied. It was unforgettable."
Cai said the display was inspired by the melody and rhythm of the tango.
"When I arrived in Argentina I started studying the culture of the La Boca area and I realized that this is one of the birthplaces of tango, so I wanted to use the history of tango to reflect Argentine culture and also to reinterpret the dance. I used that to create the fireworks here."
Born in China's Fujian province, Cai has exhibited in countries around the world and now lives and works in New York City.
